Cambodia TEFL Experience
€1,116.00 was €1,395.00
Disregarding the country’s beautiful landscapes, incredible people and rich cultural heritage (also all huge deciding factors), I feel that two months is the perfect amount of time to find out if you like something or not and if you’re suited to it. Luckily for me, I loved it so much that I decided to stay on for a while longer.
Lucy, Cambodia intern
I really enjoyed immersing myself in the culture and I’ve learnt such a lot. The kids are incredible, and their attitude towards learning is inspiring. It was definitely the children that made my teaching experience so enjoyable.
Charlie, Cambodia intern
My 7 weeks' practical experience has now turned into 4 months’ experience after I accepted a full time job in Phnom Penh! My qualification means I can teach anywhere in the world, anywhere my feet and heart may take me. It’s an overwhelming and exciting thought.
